New England B.S. Thread

One of our other nature hike discoveries.
It was only about 50 deg so this guy wasn’t moving too fast.

 

Rants are the things I do, Ramps are the things we eat! Good to get that clarified

our friends do a catering company and are cooking to go meals during this, they are going to come pick a bunch. We have hundreds all over the woods, they are everywhere.

 

I got it off guys. Just needed a little more leverage. Now the question in my head is do I repaint, sell. Them and order a new set linexd, or get quotes to have them line-x. Anybody have a hookup? Or interested in them?

 

do you know what years they would fit?

 

Should be 05-15 ACLB and DBCSB

 

Option C.

Paint them and put them back on! If you ever use them the way you are supposed to they will need to be recoated anyway. No reason to spend anymore $$$ on something you already have.

 

And Jason to answer your other question about skids, I will say this. Any protection is better than no protection but know this. I have a 1/4 inch front skid on my truck and it has a bend in it and although I do use them I don't go barreling down the trails by any means!

My recommendation for armor is sliders, steel skids and if you want to save weight then get aluminum bumpers.

 

Rob speaks the true true. Repaint with spray on bed liner. Beat them up. Touch up. Repeat.

 

Jason @jpereira2 , I concur. I used that Rustoleum spray on bed liner on my tube steps and out front. It’s held up really well. My favorite part is that it’s not “rubbery”. It’s a hard textured surface. It touches up awesome. Can’t even tell.

 

Quotes that I had for mine were around $600 linexed. So I just had sos do it for me since he got it way cheaper

I def am happy with them. Haven't had any cracks or scrapes

 

Didn't know you had rock sliders. Mine held up for about three years and I understand it'll wear where I step all the time but everywhere else not so much. Though I do believe I used duplicolor where as now I have Rust-Oleum in my basement inventory.

 

Yea SOS has a good price on doing it right from them

 

They're dirty but in good shape

 

OMG, those are filthy. Time to trade the truck in

 

I know I'm embarrassed to even show that

 

I don’t have sliders lol. I said tube steps. People open their car doors into them all time. So far no chips.

although the 1st gen might get sliders. I’m still on the fence about that.

 

Do it!!! Build your own and just weld them on

 

need to find a tubing bender......

 

Just cut and weld. Though I have read of some good results with the harbor freight bender

 

Ha! Ramps...
